- Mammoth Red is the best clover for deficient soils with a high nitrogen fixation ability and long tap root to loosen and distribute nutrients from deep in the soil.
Mammoth Red is the best clover for deficient soils. The plant is large with big leaves, making it an ideal grazing crop. Red clover may be the best choice for frost seeding; it is extremely cold hardy and does well in most soils and growing conditions. It does, like most clovers, perform poorly in hot weather unless seeded into a crop canopy.
